Alana Smith (born October 20, 2000) is an American professional skateboarder from Mesa, Arizona.[1][2] They are goofy-footed.[3]

Skateboarding career

In 2013, at the age of 12, Smith landed a 540 McTwist and became the youngest medalist in X Games history when they won silver in the women's park event at the X Games Barcelona.[4][2][5]

They finished first in the Girls Combi Pool Classic at the World Cup of Skateboarding in 2015.[5][6][7][8]

In 2016, Smith and Nora Vasconcellos joined the skate team of the Eugene, Oregon boardshop Tactics, as the brand's female ambassadors.[9]

In 2021, Smith competed in the women's street skateboarding event at the 2020 Summer Olympics, finishing in last place out of the 20 competitors at the heat stage.[10] In so doing, Smith became the first ever openly non-binary athlete to compete at the Olympics and had the pronouns "they/them" inscribed on their skateboard.[11] However, a number of sports presenters misgendered Smith during coverage of the event, including BBC Sport commentators and commentators on an international feed that was broadcast on NBC Sports.[12][13][14][4][15]

Personal life

Smith is bisexual and non-binary, using they/them pronouns.[4][11] Other than skateboarding, Smith’s other hobbies include music, film, photography, and camping.[16] In 2021, after the Tokyo games, Smith became involved with a corporate- and athletic- coaching company Exos which focuses on creating safe space skate sessions.[17] Smith has expressed how skateboarding has helped them in dark places and wants to help others find the love of the sport that has helped them keep going.[18][15] Smith was asked why they made their coming out and sexual identity public during an ESPN interview and shared that they wanted to show the world a side of them that is very vulnerable and sensitive while representing and helping kids that needed a support system. They also had started binding their chest in 2016 and received top surgery the following year.[19][20]
